Tuesday Interviews 10/10/23

I doubt Noah Shannon will be in shape, cleared and ready to play this weekend. Too much to hope for. But, just having his leadership and savvy in the room will help. The DL finally answered the bell this past weekend and they are going to have to have the game of their lives this weekend if we are to win.

The NCAA is such shit. This kid literally has a chance to carve out a living in the NFL making potentially life-changing money. The NCAA knows Shannon was caught up amongst real sinners and knows it needs to reset this situation. Cut the red tape and get this done for this kid and get him back on the field so he can show himself. I would be saying the same thing if he was going to another school.
 
To NCAA's credit, they appear to have recognized the harshness of the policy and are making changes. From what I have read the proposed changes seem quite reasonable. Kirk obviously carries some weight, and his criticism probably triggered the review.

There is no way that Noah would be in game shape for several weeks, but hopefully he at least gets a chance to get out there and finish his career on a high note.
 
Chris Jones was on the field for a game in less than a week from ending his holdout.

To my understanding, Noah was working out and preparing for the combine. I don't know what his health situation is as he was not ready to go physically in camp. But, if he is cleared to play and ready to play, he could get limited snaps this weekend. Realistically, having him ready to go by NW makes sense.

Yeah, if he's ready, great, but if he's been dealing with an injury during the same time as reported, hard to see him having a meaningful impact for a few weeks.
